cleaning fluid

Liquid for scrubbing

Cleaning fluid is a liquid solution used to remove dirt, stains, or residue from surfaces.

The term typically refers to specialized solvents for delicate materials—dry cleaning fluid for fabrics, cleaning fluid for electronics or jewelry—rather than general household cleaners like dish soap or floor cleaner.
